Today the entire third grade class went on a field trip to the Minnesota History Center. We took a coach bus to the twin cities. Kirk and Patrick passed the time with their Playstation Portables.

It was a cool winter day. We all left our coats on the bus.

Patrick, Kirk and Tyler wait in front of the mseum until we are allowed to go inside.

We explored the museum for one hour before it was lunch time.

I think the kids had fun and learned allot at the "When I was a kid" lecture.

Here "Walter", "William", "August" and "Annie" learn about being a kid in 1890.

"August" Tries on a pair of pickle barrell ski's.

This was voted as one of the kids favorite exhibit.

The Grain Land.

Kirk and Patrick as CORN and WHEAT.

And another of the kids favorite exhibits.

The gift shop.

After a long and noisy day, I finally get a picture together with Kirk.
